training technique that can be
use to increase individual s
commitment towards achieving
personal goal. Having a short
or long term goal can
encourage an individual to
work harder, to be focused on
the task and to overcome
setbacks more easily.

Are to do with winning or
performing better than someone
else.

Process Goal

process goals, over which the


individual has complete control deal
with the technique or strategy
necessary to perform well. Process
Goals can also be established to map
the route to achieving the desired
performance goals.

Performance Goals
Specify a specific standard to be achieve.
Performance Goals are about personal
standards and as such are unaffected by the
performance of others and so totally under
the control of individual.

achievement of process goals and progress
towards the desired outcome goal.
Performance can encourage the
development of mastery and can make a
performer feel satisfied with a performance
even if they do not win.
